Ainars Mielavs

(Mūzikas nams Daile, 29 December 2019)

Mielavs is a musician---a city musician, perhaps, for he treats music as a complex emergent phenomenon, a collaborative effort, akin to a city quarter, that cannot be planned and mastered by each participant in isolation. Mielavs's voice is just one of several instruments in the band, and is more for it.

He loathes repeating himself. It must be that he has not figured out life yet. He wants it to continue.

The first of the three new songs he sang will become a hit.
